Abstract

Tendons and ligaments are fibrous connective tissues that facilitate stability and motion of joints. Significant dysfunction and disability may result from suboptimal healing of tendon and ligament injuries. Extensive research continues to further understand the complex healing pathways that are involved when these structures are damaged. The combination of advances in tissue engineering, surgery, and rehabilitation will provide new pathways of improving tendon and ligament healing.
